How long can I detect drugs using a home test kit?
Drugs will start to be detectable in someone’s urine sample within an hour or two of using them (sometimes less). After this period, different drugs will remain detectable in urine for different lengths of time, but this window of detection is usually measured in days. For example, Opiates or Cocaine can be detected in urine for typically 2-4 days, perhaps as long as 5 days at the extreme. Stimulant drugs like Speed or Ecstasy (Amphetamines and Methamphetamines / MDMA) can take a little longer – from 2 to 6 days.
